  • I was blind, but now I see.... Coming from Ray Charles makes that sound so much more rewarding.

  • at 0:10 are sounds which are in a movie! in which?

  • Man, this song remembers me of my grandfather, that passed away this year (2011). He was a true Gods man. The greatest man I have ever knew. He left his homeland in the 70's with his 8 children and my grandmother. He worked hard to keep everyone out of trouble and succeeded. Im so greatful for it...

    I aways remeber of him, sitting in his chair, reading the bible and playing with his greatgrandsons. he was a great hunter too. At his hometown he's known as the "Cougar Killer".

    I love you, grandpa!

  • Wonderful version from a wonderful man.Only wish that it lasted longer.

  • Nice scenery to go with this great song. Thank you for posting this.

  • wow! beautiful pics...loved the first one of grand canyon...this song always brings tears to my eyes

  • "Was blind but now I see." I can imagine Mr. Ray Charles soaring up to heaven praising God and saying those words. My heart soars right along with him.

  • Amazing<3

    Ok, I don't know every version of Amazing Grace, but can somebody tell me.. is there any version better and prettier that this one? I highly doubt it, but if there is i wanna hear it:)

  • A NATIONAL TREASURE FOR ALL AMERICANS!!

  • great video, fantastic pictures

  • It's a shame all the great performers are gone..:(

  • je l'ai vu et entendu à Paris , en live à l'olympia; féérique et sublime orchestre et quelle voix rauque et envoutante dans I got a woman et old man river

  • ....Simply speechless......So....Awesome.­.....

  • For those who do not believe in a higher power, please answer where all this came from. We know we have evolved, but from what, from where, by who. If it was from a 'rock", where did the rock come from? There simply is no other answer and it is far more difficult to believe in nothing than something. Faith (not religion) gives comfort to millions; non-belief gives comfort to no one.

  • This is dedicated to my Wonderful Mother (Joyce)

    who passes away, I remember her singing this song very often when I was a child. I know she watches over me

  • Why are all videos about science and atheism up for debate and discussion but something like half of the god and prayer related videos I find on youtube have comments disabled? Scared little bastard children of an imaginary god 

  • @AMpufnstuf you know what? i could think of a number of clever retorts, petty arguments, intelligent counter-arguments, and/or reality checks. but I don't need to prove you wrong. see, God wins in the End. his plan is perfect, and at the Day of Atonement, there will BE NO question as to who the supreme ruler of the universe is. You can either stand with Him or against Him, but we "bastard chilren" know where we'll be.

    fyi, comments like yours are the EXACT reason that comments are disabled

  • @MattBOrange Comments like mine? You mean criticism from those who care more about decency and truth than tradition and superstition? God doesn't win anything in the end, you still have absolutely no reason to believe god is even a real thing, or that your god is the right god, or that god made the universe and not satan, or a fairy. You've got no argument, no case, nothing. So your threats of hellfire mean...nothing to the sane and mature.

  • @AMpufnstuf no, not the critiscism. just the angry-sounding, hateful insults. like calling God "imaginary" and us "bastard children".

    and like i said, you choose to reject God, well quite frankly, thats your business. but please don't call us Believers idiots for it. i don't have to prove anything to you; as they say, the truth will out.

  • @MattBOrange Bastard children could easily be considered an insult, though it is true according to all studies and sources to be taken seriously: your "heavenly father" simply is not there...

    God is imaginary, you have no evidence to suggest otherwise. Would you consider it an insult if I said Odin was imaginary? Because I bet you think he is.

    Just think about it, be open minded for once and try to focus on truth rather than what your parents insisted was true despite the evidence.

  • @AMpufnstuf The only proof i need is the differance that Christ has made in my life. I don't NEED proof; i have faith. and when you get to the bottom of it all, every believer will tell you the same thing.

    any further debate is non-productive. goodbye.

  • @MattBOrange Further debate is productive, the cults are booming and the world is rotting because of it. We need to invest this money into saving real live people, and churches deserve to be taxed like anybody else.

    You realize that the same faith that made your god feel real to you, made Allah feel even more so real to the men who slaughtered americans on 9/11?

    Faith is inaccurate, dangerous, stupid. It has no basis in reality.

  • @MattBOrange You stick with it. It is astounding to me how many atheists seem to become like Baptist preachers trying so hard to convince the rest of the world that they are right. Faith is personal and at the end of the day, those who believe in "something" go through life with Hope. Those who believe in nothing simply go through life.

  • @desertwst careful there, iam a baptist :p we geta bad rapfpr bein preachy, but its always the truth we preach. i think most people just think of all baptists today as the same "baptists" we see in books like tom sawyer... we have advanced since then, you know...

    but you're right about the hope part. its more than that; it is assurance.

  • @MattBOrange. You are right. It is assurance for those who really believe and know in their hearts. For millions more, a spiritual presence is "hope", in my view. Those who do not possess that type of peace, look at others who do, and they see a difference. Those who believe in "nothing" have exactly that. No offense about the Baptist preacher intended at all. We could all stand to have that passion in our lives. I find it humorous that those who detest religion,"preach" so much against it..

  • Love the pictures of God's beauty. love the song. Thank u Jesus. God bless everyone. Love u all. Don't half to knw u to love u I just knw that we are all God's children. He gives us unconditional love. He is my salvation my rock. Thank u God

  • I love this song:)

  • I have chills....what an amazing soul.

  • I LOVE LOVE LOVE Ray Charles!! This is my favorite hymn and he just made it so much more special for me.

  • This a song created by GOD. All our love and faith is with in these words.

    Amazing Grace how sweet the sound which shed his GRACE on thee.

    Much love to all of the world. And Much Much More. I love you if no one else told you.

  • Amazing grace! how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me! i once was lost, but now am found, was blind, but now i see. twas grace that taught my heart to fear, and grce my fears relieved how precious did that grace appear the hour i first believed through many dangers toils ans snares i have already come tis grace has brough me safe thus far and grace will lead me home the lord has promised good to me his word my hope secures he will my sheild and portion be as long as life endures
  • would be much better without getting blasted by the orchestra, damn

  • cred ca avem ce invata de la natiunea de peste ocean. cel putin, ei nu se rusineaza de gafele din istoria lor si nu si-au inventat o limba americana. Ray Charles canta " I was blind, but now I see". o canta din bezna sa, mult mai luminoasa decat noaptea din mintile unor compatrioti de-ai nostri. la multi ani, US. multumesc pt. Ray.

  • when Ray Charles songs " Was blind, but now I see", it's really AMAZING. amazing version.

  • BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!

  • Sung in a natural,yet humble fashion. The classic song of repentance!

  • beautiful pictures for a beautiful man, full of feeling.. well done!!

  • Congratulations for the performance, it`s very inspiring. This song and brilliant Ray will last forever.

  • I like this song.

  • The bible is not right so I will pay for nothing.

    Faith is Substance and Evidence, so show us evidence of God, show us substance Therefore show us God, not your view or belief.

    Substance and Evidence = PROOF

  • @Omega1st why do u want proof for?, so if god exist then what is it to you?, you don't believe in god then stop talking about god.

  • @jkdxtr321 The proof is not for me but for the ones who lack the knowledge I have so that they be not fooled and waste their lives believing folklore.

    Another thing you can't tell someone what to do. I have the power to talk is your God not powerful? Then let your God stop me if he can.

  • @Omega1st so you want to save their life, by preventing them wasting their live believing in fairy tales, what if it really helps them, i see husband stop abusing their wives until they receive whatever they think is the holy spirit, what if that's true for them, you gotta respect their decision, at least i do, and btw by hearing your tone of speech i think you have lots of ego, sounds like one of those hypocrite christian, so you maybe fighting against your kind

  • @jkdxtr321 One cannot engage in foolishness and become wise.

    You have proven my point, for if I fight against Christians and Christianity how does that equate me being a Christian? You fight against reason and willing to encourage people embrace lies.

    What does that make you?

  • @Omega1st brother i check your profile and why do you sound like a white man, don't turn out like them.

  • @jkdxtr321 How would you know how I sound? I did not talk to you on a phone.

    I wrote comments, so how could I sound like a white man if you never heard me speak?

    Are you guilty of stereotyping? I hope not.

  • @Omega1st I cannot say how the earths crust was originally created ... or the purpose of the asteroid belt??? But its His plan and purpose not mine...and the unexplainable things i take by faith ..."without faith it is impossible to please God" (Hebrews 11:6) God was not created He was always here...hard for us to wrap our minds around that because everything we have ever known has always had a beginning on this earth

  • @spyespye You seem to know more about the God who you claim, to be greater than his creation, yet you call his creation unexplainable.

    So how could you explain God,who you have never seen, but cannot explain something you could see, touch and study. Faith is made up of "Evidence" and "Substance" = Proof.

    I will await the Proof.

  • @Omega1st i didnt call all of His creation unexplainable ... but some of it is ...of course.....as far as explaining a God ive never seen well ... Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen (Hebrews 11:1) Hes changed my life, forgiven my sins and has paid the price for me.....thats my belief ...and you have a right to choose to await proof...but if the bible is right...if it is...then when you stand before God...how will you pay for the sins you have committed?

  • @spyespye We know about the planet Mars, the asteroid belt, the Star we call the Sun, did they have their beginning on this earth?

    For you said this "Everything we have ever known has always had a beginning on this earth."

  • @Omega1st i was talking about living things on this planet...not rocks

  • @spyespye This is your statement where did you mention living things? (I cannot say how the earths crust was originally created ... or the purpose of the asteroid belt??? But its His plan and purpose not mine...and the unexplainable things i take by faith ..."without faith it is impossible to please God" (Hebrews 11:6) God was not created He was always here...hard for us to wrap our minds around that because everything we have ever known has always had a beginning on this earth)

    Tell truth

  • @Omega1st um i did tell truth...you took that statement of mine from a previous comment a few days ago which was a response to your comment about the earths crust and asteroid belt...the recent comment was my response to: (We know about the planet Mars, the asteroid belt, the Star we call the Sun, did they have their beginning on this earth?"For you said this" Everything we have ever known has always had a beginning on this earth)

  • @Omega1st look im not here to argue over and over..i will take Gods definition of faith in Him over the definition of faith you posted....i think you are on the wrong video according to your beliefs/comments...wish you the best

  • @spyespye When did God give you a definition on faith?

    You read something from a book of which you claim to be God.

    How hard would it be for a supposedly powerful being to just tell you himself instead of you reading something written in a book two thousand years old.

    anyway be at peace, and be who you want to be, for it is your right. But just be about truth and honesty.

  • so there is only two of us? R U seriel?

  • who would dislike this song!

  • @ismfof155608 1 really retarted person!

  • Comment removed

  • My aunt asked me to find Amazing Grace, I love this rendition. It's so soothing.Thank you.

  • Syroup

  • what a beautiful song. I dedicate it to my cousin's dog Cora that passed away 1 week ago... I will never forget u! RIP Cora.

  • @paultoohot awww thats so sweet lol.

  • what a beautiful song. I dedicate it to my sweet grandmother who passed away march 4, 2011. There is a huge hole in my heart but I know she watches over me from Heaven. Amazing Grace... how sweet the sound...<3

  • @honeybee7700 hate to break it to ya but shes not watching, feeling, or thinking anything.

  • @highlanderdurp that is where you are incorrect she is looking down from heaven, smiling and watching over everything that I do.

  • @honeybee7700 you can believe that and wish it were true but doesnt mean it is.

  • @highlanderdurp well to each their own but you were rude to say that to me when you know my grandmother just passed and i find it comforting in knowing that she is in heaven and i believe that and you should respect peoples beliefs and not put them down especially when they are so sad.

    I believe and know its true and you can believe what you want but I believe it is true as I believe in God and know my grandmother did too and im confident she's in Heaven

  • @honeybee7700 isnt it more comforting to know that when you die your body goes back into the earth and your atoms become a part of everything in the world.

  • @highlanderdurp you know i hate to break it to you highlanderdurp but i would say that i dont quite think you are the ultimate authority on the afterlife...if you dont believe in God and life after death you know as well as i do that it makes no sense being on a video for "amazing grace" especially telling someone who lost someone dear to them that the person they love no longer exists.....

  • @spyespye its childish to think when someone dies they will still have consciousness. humans have always been afraid of death and we try to find ways to avoid it or make it seem like we dont die when we pass away. People feel better about death when they think the person is in a heaven, but the fact is its natural and most all the people alive today are not going to exist exist before the centuries over. Stupid beliefs like religion is whats keeping society from advancing.

  • @highlanderdurp Childish? Really? Id say its more immature to say that we are on this planet by accident…created by a “big bang” …and that we have no purpose on this planet….actually the bible says “the fool in his heart says there is no God” (Psalm 14:1)….but you will argue that the bible was written by men and so forth…. Im not here to argue or disrespect your freedom of choice in what you want to believe...i personally think it is insane to not believe there was a master creator

  • @spyespye and i dont believe theres not a creator i look at the mountains of evidence saying the world is nothing like some stupid ancient book says it is. its far more wonderful. obviously you dont believe in noahs ark and adam and eve (or if you do you are far stupider than i thought), so why do you pick and choose parts of the bible to believe in. did you know the old testiment advocates genocide, human sacrifice, infantacide and sexism and racism. If your god is infallable why does he?

  • @spyespye Say why would God make the earth with so many dangers to man? We are on a thin crust of ground under which is boiling lava, is that written about in the creation story in Genesis?

    Explain the plan God had when he created the asteroid belt.

    Who made the master creator?

  • @highlanderdurp I gotta strong feeling that Jesus is who He says He is, and that He is going to do what He says he is going to do…He is amazing and has changed my heart and life….i wish you the best … I really do …just wish you wouldn’t discourage others on their belief …especially on a video that is absolutely contrary to what you even believe…

  • @spyespye just like muslims have a strong feeling that muhammad is their dictator, and hindus have a strong feeling that Brahma guides their life. Humans want to feel loved and that their the center of the universe and we use anchient bronze age superstition to go about it. The fact is every cuture had a different religion in those days and probably 1/20th of the world was christian. They had all those religions because they had no science or other ways to learn about the cosmos.

  • @spyespye like muslims have strong feeling that muhammad is their dictator, and hindus have a strong feeling that Brahma guides their life. Humans want to feel loved and that their the center of the universe and we use ancient bronze age superstition to go about it. The fact is every culture had a different religion in those days and everything in the bible contradicts fact. its so obviously false. They had all those religions because they had no science or other ways to learn about the cosmos.

  • @highlanderdurp Wise people will advance but the uneducated will die the way they live.

    My friend if you ask the religious to give up the only hope they have, what will you leave them with?

    Hope is just what it is. So the only thing you can offer them is pity.

  • @Omega1st Something is either true or it isnt. How it makes you feel has nothing to do with it.

  • @highlanderdurp How true.

  • @Omega1st what

  • @honeybee7700 i lost my grandmother when i was 7 i know how u feel but don't worry at least you still have hope..... unlike my aunt who has given up all hope

  • @honeybee7700 You have to be brave ! How sweet the sound to help you ...

  • @honeybee7700 sorry for your loss

  • @honeybee7700 IM SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS MUCH LOVE AND RESPECT TO YOUR FAMILY

  • @honeybee7700 Mine passed in June this year.... I feel you...

  • @honeybee7700 I know how you feel missing your grandmommy. Shr is in the hands of Jesus now. Let her rest on until he calls. I n sincere love

  • @ptt7000 thank you for your kind comment. God bless.

  • @honeybee7700

    May u be blessed...And all burdens of the heart be removed....Cherish the memories and smile for the future.

    Quiet Storm Poetry...BE, INSPIRED!

    His voice may now be with the angels but he will never be forgotten.

  • @megasquid111 Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today. I had several chances to see Ray and "something" always came up.

  • @megasquid111 He was a very different man in his lat 25+ years than he is shown to be in n "RAY". Iwasn't extremely close to him but spent time with him. I miss his, laugh, smile, talent, wisdom and oh yes live voice everyday,
